Pionk (illness) is on the ice for warmups and expected to play Thursday versus the Devils, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Scouting Report
The cerebral defenseman is at his best when he is moving the puck and joining the attack. He generally knows when to jump up into the play and makes good decisions with the puck. Contributes on the power play, though more as a passer than a scorer. His problems come in the defensive zone, where his lack of size and strength often come into play.
Long Range Potential: Solid offensive defenseman.
